Coconut Macadamia Cookies

Coconut Macadamia Cookies on a plate

Delicious dense and chewy, these cookies are incredible. I love the combination of coconut and macadamia nuts… throw in some white chocolate chips and you’re in for a real treat. These cookies are super easy to make!

Makes about 3 dozen cookies

INGREDIENTS
1 ½ sticks Butter, softened
¾ cup Brown Sugar, packed
1/3 cup Granulated Sugar
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
1 Egg
1 2/3 cup Flour
¾ tsp Baking Powder
½ tsp Baking Soda
½ tsp Salt
2 cups White Chocolate Chips
1 cup Coconut
¾ cup Macadamia Nuts, chopped

METHOD
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a large bowl, beat the butter, sugars and vanilla until light and creamy.
Add in the egg until blended.
Stop the electric mixer and add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Mix on medium just until blended.
Stir in the white chocolate chips, coconut and macadamia nuts.
Drop by rounded tablespoon onto an ungreased baking sheet (I use a silpat).
Bake for about 8 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from oven and allow to remain on the baking sheet for another 2 minutes.
Transfer cookies to baking sheet and allow to cool completely.
Enjoy!

  2. I love macadamia and white chocolate cookies, but have never had them with coconut. I think the coconut sounds so good in these cookies.

    • Hi Dawn! The addition of coconut gives them a tropical feel. I sure hope you give my recipe a try. I’d love to hear how you like them. :)
